Escape from the Madhouse [Unlimited]

the other side.a moment ago.

He Xiaowei moved the chair to the side of Qi Liuxing, and the two of them used their mobile phones to check the information together. They checked the information of this psychological counseling center and Li Xuehai.

Li Xuehai, 32 years old this year, surprisingly, he did not major in psychiatry at the beginning, he majored in clinical medicine combined with undergraduate and master degree, after graduation he also worked in emergency department for one year, general surgery for one year, Later, he specialized in psychiatry, and came to Chunshan from the city hospital.

It took a long time to transfer to the psychiatric department, but Li Xuehai obviously adapted very quickly, and soon took the position of deputy director.He also maintains the output of at least one thesis a year, and has even been to SCI several times. He is a real academic master.

Judging from his resume, Lixuehai is so excellent that no one can see any problems at all.

It's just that the reason for his sudden transfer to the psychiatric department is unknown.

As for the place where Zhou Qian is receiving treatment, it is called Yanghui Psychological Counseling Studio.

According to the data from Tianyancha, the legal representative is Liu Yang, and the shareholders are Liu Yang and Liu Hui.

Following this line, Qi Liuxing and He Xiaowei searched together, and found that there was indeed a man named Liu Yang who was in the same medical university as Li Xuehai.

Liu Yang, should be the round-faced man that Qi Liuxing and the others met in the consulting room, and also Li Xuehai's senior.

After using the search engine to search for a while, Qi Liuxing and He Xiaowei discussed a few words and found that something was wrong.

Through the glass of the coffee shop, they could see that many people on the road were running in one direction, and it happened to be in the direction of the building where the consultation room was located.

Qi and He looked at each other, their faces turned pale.Their actions reached a high degree of consistency in an instant-get up, go back to the door of the cafe, push the door out, and then run towards the office building.

The two danced wildly along the way.

Out of apprehension, they followed.

The reason why they dare not act rashly for the time being is nothing more than two points——

First, Zhou Qian may not be crazy, what is he testing, they are worried about destroying Zhou Qian's plan.

Second, everyone has long agreed that there is no need for Taohong and the others to kill people in real life. Death in the game represents real destruction. Their manipulation in real life will only cause unnecessary trouble. After all, many things about gamblers and players, It's all done quietly.

"Jumped off the building! Someone jumped off the building!"

"It fell from the 11th floor!"

……

But when they heard such a voice, they undoubtedly felt frightened.

Fortunately, when they arrived, they saw Li Xuehai helping Zhou Qian to sit on the air mattress.

half an hour later.In the city hospital.

He Xiaowei accompanied Zhou Qian for the examination, and Qi Liuxing deliberately left Li Xuehai behind, saying that he had something to say to him.

Looking at Li Xuehai at this moment, Qi Liuxing asked him directly: "In addition to calling an ambulance just now, you should also call the police."

Li Xuehai didn't show any expression. "Hypnotherapy is uncontrollable, especially for Zhou Qian's attempt this time. It is indeed dangerous. Opening the window is a necessary test. But just in case of emergency, I specially set up an air cushion outside the window The bed. If I want to kill him, there's no need for an air mattress, right?

"You have concerns, I can understand. If you want, you can call the police now."

Qi Liuxing was silent for a while, and said, "You can talk to the police. Zhou Qian knows a police uncle."

"Well. I know him. He often comes to see Zhou Qian." Li Xuehai said, "It's usually the end of the month, which is far from here."

Qi Liuxing turned to ask again: "So, how is Zhou Qian's situation?"

Li Xuehai frowned and said: "The situation is not optimistic. After returning from the hospital, we will temporarily isolate him to a separate ward. You cannot live with him. It is very dangerous."

Qi Liuxing stood up immediately. "He's tied up with a straitjacket, what's the danger?"

Li Xuehai asked calmly: "Do you want him to be tied to the same bed all the time, but have a separate ward, at least he can walk around in the ward?"

Qi Liuxing had nothing to say and fell into a long silence.

Now he has no way to communicate with Zhou Qian at all, and he dare not ask too much at all.

Li Xuehai took the initiative to ask him: "Have you contacted your parents recently?"

"No." Qi Liuxing shook his head, and then said, "I'm talking about the latest... It's calculated according to the game."

Qi Liuxing wasted a lot of time in the game.

But based on real time, he didn't stay in touch with his parents for too long.

"I met them when you just transferred here. I remember that they still cared about your studies. Have you thought about what university you want to go to and what major you will study?" Li Xuehai asked him.

Qi Liuxing shook his head, looked around to see if there was no one around, and said in a low voice: "The upgrade of the addictive game... I almost forgot that I am just taking a break from school now, and I have to take the college entrance examination in the future."

He didn't know the intention of Li Xuehai's question, but when it came to professional incarnation, Qi Liuxing asked him instead: "The doctor's previous grades should be very good, what do you think of me studying medicine?"

"Not very much." Li Xuehai answered truthfully.

"Why? Save lives and heal the wounded, isn't it good?" Qi Liuxing asked.

Li Xuehai said: "What you said is very ideal, but it is also very false. The reality is that there is a risk of medical troubles if you live more and earn less."

Qi Liuxing asked curiously: "If this is the case, wouldn't there be no one in this world willing to be a doctor?"

Li Xuehai smiled lightly: "Don't take it seriously, I'm joking. In fact, it's not true. If you do something yourself, you can experience the hardships of this line of work, so you don't recommend people around you to engage in this line of work. The bottom line is that , They don’t understand the sufferings of other industries.”

"So..." Qi Liuxing asked nonchalantly, "Then how did the doctor decide to choose the department of psychiatry?"

Li Xuehai's face and answers were flawless, and he answered very frankly: "Actually, I studied clinical medicine at the beginning. When I first started working, I used a scalpel, and all I did was fine work."

"Ah?" Qi Liuxing was very surprised, "I don't quite understand, the gap between the two is a bit big, isn't it? Why did they switch?"

Li Xuehai replied sincerely: "It's a sense of frustration. Now that medicine is very advanced, but sometimes you try your best...you can only watch the patient die in front of your eyes. Especially on the operating table, you just watch him die. When dying in front of you."

At this point, Li Xuehai made a gesture of spreading his hands, perhaps because he remembered an example of an unsuccessful operation.

He continued: "I took a lot of critical cases that year, but only one was left behind. At that time, I was thinking... If they just went to another dimension, maybe I would feel better. Like hell. It's a bit ridiculous Bar--

"Doctors who rely on modern science to save lives have such unmaterialistic ideas.

"However, coming into contact with this game... really overturned my cognition."

"But... as long as you try your best." Qi Liuxing said, "You are just a doctor, not a god. You don't have to have such high demands on yourself."

"That's the truth. It's just that I couldn't get through it at the time." Li Xuehai shook his head, "But I have always been interested in brain science, and I got an opportunity to make a change.

"Actually, it's the same as treating diseases and saving lives. No need to use a scalpel."

It is rare for Li Xuehai, who doesn't talk much, to chat a little more today. "For example, do you know where Zhou Qian's problem is?"

Qi Liuxing shook his head.

Li Xuekaidao: "The frontal lobe of the brain. It is in charge of cognition, emotion, pain and behavior management, etc."

"The frontal lobe... is there any theory behind this?" Qi Liuxing frowned.

"Yes. I won't explain the complexity to you with terminology. To put it simply, in the history of psychiatry, there was a period of time when there were two completely different directions for the treatment of mental patients.

"One of them insists that mental illness is a psychological problem. In many cases, patients suffer from great changes and strong stimulation. Then, according to the cause of the disease, treatment methods such as hypnosis and scene reappearance can be used. , with the assistance of drugs to cure the patient.

"There is also a diametrically opposite theory, which holds that psychosis is entirely a brain problem, and the problem must be solved by cutting a knife in the frontal lobe. Practice has proved that manic, anti-human, and incapable of empathy patients , you can indeed change your personality through this surgical procedure, they will become quieter and less harmful, but most of the time, they will also become stupid."

"Then Zhou Qian—"

"This is a theory from a long time ago, and it is no longer applicable. Of course Zhou Qian doesn't need surgery. I will help him with medicine."

If you never knew Zhou Qian, never experienced this game, never encountered Ke Yuxiao's betrayal...

After Qi Liuxing's conversation, he would think that Li Xuehai is professional, patient, gentle, and has lofty career ideals, and his pursuit of perfection has gone too far.

But after all, Qi Liuxing had experienced too much, after listening to Li Xuehai's words, his back was soaked.

Li Xuehai is not God, not a god, so he has no way to save every patient on the operating table.

This is what Qi Liuxing said to comfort him just now.

But now Qi Liuxing suddenly realized - what if he wanted to regard himself as a god?

the next day.Temporary isolation ward in Ward [-].

The heavy curtains blocked the sunlight, making it impossible to tell whether it was day or night, and the incandescent lamps in the house were blindingly bright.

Because the sound insulation is so good, there is hardly any outside sound here.

However, there was a loud voice in the room—it was the sound of Zhou Qian desperately trying to restrain him under the agitation.

At this moment Zhou Qian was tied to the bed with a restraint belt.

The bed was half rolled up, and he sat in a rather distorted posture, staring fiercely at the person in front of him.

Because of too much force in breaking free, several buttons of Zhou Qian's hospital gown fell off, and the clothes that didn't fit very well were crookedly covered on his body, and a large neckline and collarbone were exposed, which seemed to be due to the long-term torment of the disease. It is not sickly white, but it is particularly obvious under the illumination of incandescent lamps.

It's just that the shoulders, collarbone, wrists, and bare ankles that were originally fair, all had red marks from the restraint belt due to his movement of breaking free.

At this moment, Zhou Qian is undoubtedly extremely embarrassed.

The irritable demeanor and the nervous eyes all showed that he was completely insane.

In contrast, there was a strong smell of food in the ward.

——There was actually a large table of food in front of Zhou Qian.

The person sitting at the table is Li Xuehai.

He looked at Zhou Qian expressionlessly, but his pupils were very dark, appearing unfathomable.

Spraying alcohol on the palms and backs of his hands twice, Li Xuehai put on gloves for himself, acting as if he was about to enter the operating room for surgery.

But what he does after putting on the gloves is undoubtedly surprising.

—He picked up a shrimp and peeled it.

Facing Zhou Qian, Li Xuehai asked: "You like to eat seafood, right? You don't want any onion, ginger, or garlic. I just ordered some vinegar for you."

Zhou Qian continued to swing his body frantically, obviously not knowing what he was talking about.

But as if he could hear Zhou Qian's answer, he nodded and took out a pair of pliers to pick up the shrimp thread: "Well, yes, I know your style, so I can peel the shrimp for you."

With a "ding", Li Xuehai put the peeled shrimps into a snow-white plate.

"The kid next to you is very wary of me." After peeling a few more shrimps, Li Xuehai began to pick up tools and use a nearly standardized procedure to dismantle a crab perfectly.

The crab meat was picked out little by little, and placed next to the shrimp on the white plate, and then he started to scoop up the crab roe with a small tool, and served them in a small bowl.

Li Xuehai said to himself again: "It seems that you taught him very well. I can actually understand his vigilance and hostility. Looking at it this way...you should have been hostile to me a long time ago."

Picking up the crab-splitting knife casually, Li Xuehai suddenly stood up and walked in front of Zhou Qian, leaning over to look at his red eyes from staring at him all the time.

"Zhou Qian, in fact, this is not the first time you have experienced Bai Zhou's death. You were only 17 years old and you endured it all. Why did you live back when you got older?

"Is it because your relationship is different? Is it because it's more painful to get and lose? Or...are you playing tricks with me?"

"But anyway, there's no need for me to hide from you, right?

"Either, you are really crazy. Or, you have tried to get the result you want. No matter what the possibility is, I can already confess to you completely."

"In fact, from the moment you take this step, you will definitely get the results you want. After all, seeing that you seem to be crazy, it is impossible for me not to do a test to see if you are really crazy. You are really good clever."

Li Xuehai praised Zhou Qian without hesitation, and said in a bizarre and admonishing tone: "Zhou Qian, when you play games, I often advise you not to go to extremes. But you never listen to me, Always want to solve problems in the most risky way. Although you can succeed, you will face great dangers and suffer a lot. Don't you worry, what tests will I do later?"

Finally Li Xuehai sighed. "In fact, I very much hope that you are just my patient. When I left that case file, you didn't try to find someone in Area X."
